Our Areas of Expertise: Services We Offer:

Here is a list of the wrong fuel services we offer.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Suffolk we have encountered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree stemming from drivers not being aware of how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. If you did start the car you will very likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations very simply.

Remember though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking bay we can access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

Management of Waste Fuel

Have an old fuel tank lying at the back of your premises containing aged, useless or degraded fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to several domestic and commercial properties in Suffolk to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even a few containers in a shed, providing we can access it, we can empty it for you.

Re-Fueling Service

Run out of fuel in Racecourse (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill up your car or truck. They will handle any of the standard issues which could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Fuel Rescue Racecourse - Racecourse Fuel Removal

I'd had a great afternoon fishing during the weekend and was feeling pleased the next working day as I headed out to assist a new family who were holidaying in Racecourse. They pulled over after putting petrol in their Chevrolet, and the car was around half an hour's travel away. I emerged at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl telling her partner off for being so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this problem happens frequently in Suffolk and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, even so he all the same had an earful. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyway, I extracted all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove away I shouted so long and thought about what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I made the exact same error... I would never hear the end of it!
